similar to: libguestfs-tools not working

In CentOS 6 with KVM, I have libguestfs-tools installed, but the "virt-xxx" tools like "virt-df" just give, "libguestfs: error: cannot find any suitable libguestfs supermin, fixed or old-style appliance on LIBGUESTFS_PATH (search path: /usr/lib64/guestfs)". What am I missing? All the guests boot and run OK. I just can't get these tools to work.

With the release of RHEL 7.3 happening today, fixing 88 reported bugs in libguestfs and virt-v2v, and countless other ones, it's time to look ahead to RHEL 7.4. Again we intend to rebase libguestfs, virt-v2v and virt-p2v: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1359086 1359086 NEW Rebase libguestfs in RHEL 7.4 To help with testing I have set up a preview repository here:

In RHEL 6.5 we are probably going to rebase libguestfs, febootstrap and virt-v2v. As usual when this happens, I've put up a preview repository: http://oirase.annexia.org/tmp/libguestfs-RHEL-6.5/ If you want to use these packages, the easiest thing to do is to copy the attached file into /etc/yum.repos.d/ and simply install or upgrade libguestfs. If you want to test libguestfs, obviously

I suspect I know the answer here, but is qemu-kvm-0.12 simply incapable of passing a USB 3.0 device to a guest? USB 2 devices work fine, but USB 3 -- nothing. USB 3.0 works fine in the host, of course. Currently using qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.479.el6_7.4.x86_64 in CentOS 6.7. I'm guessing I have to upgrade to CentOS 7 to pass USB 3.0 devices to the guest. Hoping to avoid that just now. -- Bob

Today's ghostscript.x86_64 0:8.70-21.el6_8.1 update causes evince to refuse to display any postscript file. Running evince from a terminal session, I see the errors: invalidaccess -7 invalidaccess -7 invalidaccess -7 ** (evince:1252): WARNING **: Error rendering thumbnail Downgrading to ghostscript.x86_64 0:8.70-21.el6 corrects the problem.

Hello List, Does anyone know why this is not available in CentOS 6.6. I found it in a SL repo but not in CentOS. I found several CentOS Bugs one answered by JH http://bugs.centos.org/print_bug_page.php?bug_id=6822 saying it had been added to 6.5 2013-12-09 19:05 JohnnyHughes Resolution open => fixed But it is still not available. cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 6.6 (Final)

If you are running RHEL 7.2 betas or snapshots (or RHEL 7.2 when it comes out next month) then you may be interested in trying out the newer RHEL 7.3 preview versions of: - libguestfs - virt-v2v (Supported since RHEL 7.2) - virt-p2v (Technical Preview in RHEL 7.2, Supported in RHEL 7.3) I intend to release upstream 1.32 towards the end of this year, and rebase libguestfs to that version.

Once the system gets into this state, the only remedy is a forced power-off. What seems to be happening is that an NFS filesystem that auto-mounted over a WiFi connection cannot be unmounted because the WiFi connection is enabled only for my login and gets torn down when my UID is logged off. Any suggestions on how I can configure things to avoid this? I really don't want to expose my WPA2

I just had the misfortune to press Shift-{print screen} accidentally while in a Gnome desktop, and the result was a completely unresponsive system where the only recovery was a power switch initiated shutdown. Further investigation shows the runaway creation of gnome-screenshot processes. System is CentOS 5.2 fully updated on an Intel i686. Suggestions about what component should receive the

I'm still not getting the firefox-38.1.1-1.el6.centos.x86_64.rpm that was announced yesterday (8 August) morning. I looked at several of the mirror sites I receive, and they all have the new firefox in their Packages directory, but their repodata is all a day older (7 August), so yum doesn't see the update. Example mirror: http://mirror.cs.uwp.edu/pub/centos/6.7/updates/x86_64/ -- Bob

Anyone managed to get a Windows 10 guest running well under qemu/kvm? I can get it up and running, but there is a major issue with losing use of the mouse, plus my display resolution is stuck at 1024x768. The mouse will work for a short time (a few seconds to a few minutes), but then stops responding. That's with the mouse coming in as the recommended QEMU tablet device. I can assign a USB
